D&D Core Rulebooks Gift Set
If you want to upgrade or skip to the “Core Rulebooks” — the hardback Player’s Handbook, Monster Manual and Dungeon Master’s Guide — there’s a great deal that includes the updated books in a special foil-cover variant that also includes a Dungeon Master Screen. You can currently get it from Amazon at as much as 40% off its regular $170 price tag. (Individually, the three standard-edition books can retail for as much as $50 each.) These special versions also include rules corrections and updates that came about after the first printing. Unlike the boxed starter sets, this doesn’t give you any dice…
